Great!

Pros: The battery recharges quickly and supplies the speakers for at least 8 hours (on moderate volume). I found that the speakers produced plenty of sound to fill a small cabin. The sound quality is not that great but I can't imagine buying these for that purpose. Instead, they are an effective portable speaker that won't die quickly and is loud enough to hear.

Pros: Excellent drive. In terms of overall usability, it greatly improved my computer. I initially installed this as IDE and it was quite fast. I switched to AHCI and it only got better. I did a clean install on my system (see specs below). Using CrystalDisk Mark, I observe read speeds of about 220 mb/s and write speeds of about 150 mb/s. Also, the throughput remains strong across all of the tests that are conducted (random, small chunks, etc.). The disk comes in at 3x faster throughput than my high-end HDD.

Windows Experience Index (WEI) went from 5.9 to 7.2 (IDE) or 7.8 (SATA 3). It takes about 30 seconds to boot my computer.

This drive is being used with a Core i7 2.7ghz - based computer. I have 12 gb of ram and an ATI 4580.

I waited a bit to post a review because I have heard about BSODs occurring during the first week. That didn't happen to me.

Cons: None yet.

Other Thoughts: I can't comment on the migration software. I did a clean install.
